A hilltop forge at 39, 40 of the Maw is a nice place to rescue these souls. There, the souls and Stone Prisons respawn quickly, with minimal hostile mobs. You can camp between the forge's east and west side to collect the souls without losing an arm and a leg. This location is right next to the round platform that [npc=157833] respawns.

This quest is a bit too difficult and too dangerous. Players often have to risk a lot of Stygia roaming in the Maw, looking for the souls. Moreover, the souls are usually guarded by hostile mobs. So, please, Daddy Blizz, do not nerf any further the respawn rate of the souls or Stone Prisons.

That is every comment on this page.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
